At Nakano's Chillaxin' Book Shop: Minoh Beer's Grapefruit Sour and Hoppy Weizen
Chillaxin' Book Shop / Chirakushin Book Shop in Arai, Nakano City, has received two seasonal beers from Minoh Beer. The lineup pairs well with hot days: Grapefruit Sour and Hoppy Weizen, fitting naturally into a shop atmosphere where you can enjoy books, coffee, and beer.
Hop BroTwo seasonal beers from Minoh Beer have landed at Chillaxin' Book Shop in Arai, Nakano City. The lineup hits the spot on hot days, and the one that really catches my eye first is the Grapefruit Sour.
MugiWait, a bookstore where you can drink beer too? And on top of that, two seasonal beers? That's enough to make me excited already!
Hop BroExactly. It's a used bookstore and beer spot, and the fact that you can enjoy coffee there too is what makes it so interesting. This time, Minoh Beer's Grapefruit Sour and Hoppy Weizen have arrived.
MugiGrapefruit Sour sounds sour just from the name! But if it's easy to choose as your first drink, what kind of beer is it?
Hop BroIt's the kind with a grapefruit-like citrus character and a bright, lively acidity. Because it has such a light mouthfeel, it's great for going down smoothly on hot days.
MugiI see, so it's not like juice, but still definitely beer! Then the next one, Hoppy Weizen, has such a loaded name already!
Hop BroThat's what makes it interesting. It layers hop aroma over the Weizen's gentle fragrance, while bringing out the soft wheat-derived mouthfeel.
MugiOhhh! So it smells light and fluffy, but still has real body? That's exactly what you call a beer focused on aroma!
Hop BroRight. It's designed to be easy to keep drinking even in the heat, and it's the kind of beer that fits perfectly with reading while sipping slowly and comparing the two. The combination of books and beer is pretty hard to beat.
MugiA drink while flipping through old books on Yakushi Airoad in Nakano sounds amazing... Today I'm in the mood to start with the citrus sour!
Hop BroStart with the Grapefruit Sour for something light, then sink into the aroma with the Hoppy Weizen. I can't stop wanting to taste them side by side.
MugiMe neither! I want to pick out books in Nakano and then go beer-hopping with the two Minoh beers!

Grapefruit Sour
